the worst way to miss someone

Last night I missed you

I tried to call out to you

But you couldn't hear me over the pounding of my heart

I tried to get closer

But once again my heart was in the way

Blocking me from feeling you

Or you from me

I wanted to make love to you last night

And when I came I thought my heart would burst

As well as I

For it was moving faster than I could think

Or breathe

I am right here beside you

I cry for you

I long for you

I ache to give myself to you

But you can't see me

You can't feel me

You can't hear me

Over the 

poundingscreamingterror

of my heart
